Getting started
Set up your device

Maintaining water and dust resistance | Charge the battery | Install cards and the
battery
Your device uses a nano-SIM card. A SIM card may be preinstalled, or you may be able
to use your previous SIM card. Network indicators for 5G service are based on your
carrier’s specifications and network availability. Contact your carrier for more details.
100%
Charge your device

Before turning on your
device, charge it fully.
NOTE Your device is IP68 rated for dust and water resistance. To maintain the
water-resistant and dust-resistant features of your device, make sure that the
SIM card/Memory card tray openings are maintained free of dust and water, and
the tray is securely inserted prior to any exposure to liquids.
6
Getting started
Maintaining water and dust resistance

CAUTION To avoid electric shock and damage to your device, do not charge
device while it is wet or in an area where it could get wet. Do not handle device,
charger or cords with wet hands while charging.
The device is not impervious to dust and water damage in any situation. It is important
that all compartments are closed tightly.
Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to the device and maintain dust and
water resistance performance:
l Water resistant based on IP68 rating, which tests submersion in fresh water deeper
than 1.5 meters or keep it submerged for more than 30 minutes. If device is exposed
to fresh water, dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth; if exposed to liquid other
than fresh water, rinse with fresh water and dry as directed.
l Any device which uses accessible compartments or ports that can be opened
should have these sealed or closed tightly to prevent liquid from entering the
system.
l If the device has been immersed in water or the microphone or speaker is wet,
sound may not be heard clearly during a call. After wiping the device with a dry
cloth, dry it thoroughly before using it.
l Do not expose the device to water at high pressure.
l If the device is dropped or receives an impact, the water and dust resistant features
of the device may be damaged.
NOTE Liquid other than fresh water may enter the device faster. Failure to rinse
the device in fresh water and dry it as instructed may cause the device to suffer
from operability or cosmetic issues.

Before you start exercising

Although the Samsung Health application is a great companion to your exercise
routine, it is always best to make sure you consult with your physician before
beginning any exercise regimen. While moderate physical activity, such as brisk
walking, is safe for most people, health experts suggest that you talk with your doctor
before you start an exercise program, particularly if you have any of the following
conditions:
• Heart disease; Asthma or lung disease; Diabetes, or liver or kidney disease; and
Arthritis.
Before beginning your exercise regimen check with your doctor if you have
symptoms suggestive of heart, lung, or other serious disease, such as:
• Pain or discomfort in your chest, neck, jaw, or arms during physical activity;
• Dizziness or loss of consciousness;
• Shortness of breath with mild exertion or at rest, or when lying down or going to
bed;
• Ankle swelling, especially at night;
• A heart murmur or a rapid or pronounced heartbeat;
• Muscle pain when walking upstairs or up a hill that goes away when you rest.
It is recommended that before engaging in an exercise routine, you consult with your
doctor or medical practitioner. If you are unsure of your health status, have several
health problems, or are pregnant, you should speak with your doctor before starting
a new exercise program.
